New Year, New Post 👋
Hello everyone!
I didn't realize before, but we are more than 1000 subscribers 🎉 THANK YOU! It's been a while since my last post, and I've been deeply reflective recently.
This happens to me at the beginning and end of each year, it's time to review and set new goals.
This year, I've learned to trust my gut instinct. It often knows where I should be and where I shouldn't. I've realized the importance of not settling for things I don't believe in and embracing discomfort as a path to growth. Most importantly, I've practised gratitude for both the positive experiences and all the learnings. 🤡
Sharing goals publicly often increases our commitment to pursuing them. So, one of my resolutions for 2024 is to move home, a goal I've been trying to achieve for a while now. 2024 is the year! 🚀
I want to share a video I watched this morning that I found incredibly insightful.
Reed Hastings' first lesson, "NO RULES RULES," is about acting in Netflix's best interest. I think this idea can apply to our society and personal relationships. If we think more about the group's interest instead of just our own, things could be more equal and fair. Also doing this, he is empowering his employees.
The second lesson, "A global company needs a global culture," is about understanding and including everyone, crucial for growth.
The third lesson, "Disagree Openly and Move Forward with Candor," is something I always do in my teams. Open and honest communication and feedback, are key for a healthy and strong team.
The fourth lesson, "Inspire, Not Manage," is about leading by example, not just giving orders, the management style is outdated.
Finally, the idea of "Open Information" is basic, too. Having all the information helps us make better decisions and work more efficiently.
What do you think about the video?
By the way, Reed Hastings, the former CEO of Netflix, left to start building another startup, where he says that he feels more comfortable in the early stages than the growth ones, though he stayed with Netflix for more than two decades.
